Recently, the naturalization of the national football team has once again become a hot topic. The reasons are nothing more than three points: first, the U23 national football Asian Cup lost to Japan and South Korea in the group stage again, and returned home; second, Indonesia's U23, which has naturalized more than 10 players, defeated South Korea and Vietnam to reach the semifinals; third, the Chinese Super League club Cangzhou Lions' foreign aid Oscar expressed a positive attitude towards the naturalization issue, and the fans' calls for naturalization Oscar are getting higher and higher. For a while, the naturalization of the national football team seemed to have become a consensus. The problem is that we didn't try naturalization, but it didn't bring the results we were looking for. Should we continue to be naturalized, what kind of players should we naturalize, and how can we achieve sustainable development after naturalization?
1. Should we be naturalized?
The rise of Indonesian football gives the answer: the Indonesian Olympic team reached the U23 semi-finals, which is the great success of the naturalization policy, from Tom Haye and Olatamang in the Eredivisie, to Hubuna in the Premier League, Indonesia's naturalized players have reached 12 people, and the improvement of strength is self-evident, and the Indonesian national team has also achieved three consecutive kills against the Vietnamese team, and is very hopeful to enter the top 18 of the Asian region. It is difficult for the national football team to rely on self-reliance. In fact, the reason for the failure of the last round of naturalization of the national football team is not in the naturalization itself, but in the use of naturalized players.
In fact, the current national football team is barely capable of doing the job except for individual players in individual positions, and the front, middle and back three lines lack the backbone, so it is good to naturalize the entire team, but considering that the operation is too difficult, we should first naturalize the brain of a team, sort out the chaotic offense and defense, and control the rhythm of the essentials. Secondly, it is a sharp knife that charges into battle to improve the embarrassment of a poor kick at the door.
3. What happens after naturalization?
Naturalization is not the goal, but raising the level is. How to make good use of the naturalized catfish effect, driving the role, and then cultivating our own stars is the right reason, the Japanese also naturalized Ramos in the early days, which not only helped the team improve the offensive and defensive level, but also brought a fresh concept of football, which influenced a generation of Japanese young people to devote themselves to football, which is the success of the Ramos effect.
In short, since naturalization has become imperative, how to naturalize has become a major issue facing the national football team, so as not to be self-defeating, follow the example, repeat the mistakes of the past, and become a joke!
